View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat tool is there for me to copy a lots of file from one webhost (FTP site) to another webhost? Like in for migrating to another host.
I'm thinking of a tool where I can specify the FTP access information for both sites, and it would perform the copy without needing to store the files on my local hard disk first.
I rent windows dedicated server for just about a month, but I never had problem.
When I copy files on my home computer and then paste them onto server's drive, files begin copying, but after some time they stop copying and I hear double beep sound.
Time after which they stop copying is random.
I'm trying to use the "mysqldump" command to get a copy of all databases on the server...
but I need each database to go into a "databaseXYZ.tar.gz" file.
Does anyone know how to do this? So far, I can only get all the databases into a single file. But I need each database to have its own file.
To automate a task, I need to create a shell script that will allow me to copy the folder blank/ to a new location and rename it to news/, same for the files inside that directory. And, if possible, change the content of one of those files as well.
For example, I need to copy this:
Code:
blank/
templates/
frontend/
index.html
Blank.php
...to a new folder and rename it to this:
Code:
news/
templates/
frontend/
index.html
News.php

I am at a loss, I don't know what else to try.
In previous thread we made few manual transfer of our domains.
We also made some automated migration of few domains/sites using Web Host Manager's Copy an account from another server feature.
All the files and other settings were properly transferred from old server to new server, but only the mysql database is not visible on new server. I am unsure if the same got copied to new server.
i use Adaptec 2200s with three scsi HD to do raid,
it is install centos with cpanel.
after rebooting,it can not load into the raid5 well,
and shows no logical drivers... and no operation system found.

i want to ask,if a use another three hds with the Adaptec 2200s to set another raid5.
and build another one server.
and i mount the old first one HD from the old raid5 and mount the new first one HD from the new raid5,
and copy the files from old ones to the new ones.
How do I copy an entire mysql sql database file via ssh?
Inside /var/lib/mysql the sql are per table, not one single sql. The db is over 300mb in size too.
Using mysql 5/centos 4.6
I couldn't keep my mouth shut (technically fingers). A customer wanted to upgrade servers and he needed a way to move the data across. Since I don't allow hard drives to be swapped, they have to do it manually all by themselves. I generally allow up-to 4 days for them to transfer data and make DNS changes, etc. But this time, I offered help! I agreed to move the data (darn me) and it just came out of me, involuntarily.
God knows what just happened... but in a positive way, customer is extremely happy!
So...
Both servers are on cPanel - with root access (duh)
200 odd files which total to 25 GB
1 database about 100 MB in size (no biggie)
I was planning on using one of my Windows 2003 servers (via remote desktop) to download the 25 GB and upload the 25 GB, but that sounds like a waste of resources and time.
I have around 40 domains and I'm trying to avoid copying each one over manually. I can't remember what files need to be copied and the best command to do that.

I want to use DD to fully duplicate a HD, however, the HD is 120GB and also have a mount folder that is 2TB. If I use DD, will it also trying to copy that 2TB onto my 2nd HD?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIt turns out my 250GB hard drive was no match for my data... I need to upgrade the HD.
I'm currently using ClarkConnect Community Edition.
Is it fine to make a duplicate of an existing hard drive and just plug the new one in?
Is there any further configuring or is it all sweet?
Also, what software do you recommend to make the copy?
I have 2 cpanel servers with root access.
I want to copy all the accounts from 1 server to another.
wasn't sure if this should go into "technical" or "programming" but I figure someone here will instantly be able to tell me...
(details: I'm on a shared host with cpanel and centos 3)
My hosting service techs refuse to update gnu TAR on the server even though it's several years old at 1.13 and has some know bugs that are annoying for complex calls - (basically the techs use any request like this to try to upsell me to dedicated or VPS which I don't need at my low level)
So I'd like to install a "local" copy of the newer gnu 1.14 or 1.15 TAR (which I *think* is possible?) into my account and have it run instead of the shared copy?
Unfortunately this is beyond my knowledge so thanks for any help in the right direction...

Is it possible to get [Crone job] that sends a backup copy for single user in the server to another hosting via FTP which has [Domain name/ User /Password] either weekly or 3 times a week
View 10 Replies View RelatedI seem to be having a problem where periodically the data in one file is getting corrupted. I haven't been able to figure out a pattern to it, so I wanted to run command by crontab that would create a copy of the file each day. To avoid overwriting previous backups the filename of each day's copy would have to be unique like...
cp filename filename-2008-07-03
Is there a way to include this year, this month, and this day variables in a linux command?
I want to config my IIS SMTP server to copy ALL sent mail to another address.
Or, to log in more detail what was sent (I have W3C logging turned on but it doesnt record the mail subject or body).
Basically when a user complains they didnt get an email, I want to be able to look in the log to see (a) the mail was sent and (b) the body/subject of the mail.
